The Military Queen-Chapter 119 - 87_2
This customer’s design filled a gap in their Forge Room. To show gratitude for Yijie’s design, Ryan proposed to waive the forging fee.
Physical Strength listened for a while and, towards the end, added a sentence: "Add a detachable sheepskin pad here, which will alleviate some pressure on the arm and the gunstock, reducing unnecessary physical wear." After saying this, she glanced at the red abrasion on Yijie’s upper right arm. The flesh is on his body, and whether it hurts or not, he wouldn’t even consider it. He really is a baldy whose brain and hair haven’t fully grown.
Yijie looked at Physical Strength curiously. She understood his firearms designs? And even pointed out the flaws in his design?
Ryan took another look and admired, "Not bad at all. This can prevent abrasions on your arm due to the repeated recoil when using it. Your girlfriend is really thoughtful."
When the two entered, whether it was their movements or pace, they were very synchronized. With Yijie being such a big guy, he walked very fast, but when he was with Physical Strength, he couldn’t exactly leave a woman behind, so he had to accommodate her pace. Having done this for a day and a night, it seemed they were in perfect harmony. No wonder Ryan and the others misunderstood.
"We’re just partners," Physical Strength waved her hand impatiently as if swatting away a few headless flies, "Master Ryan, his problem has been resolved, next is my necklace."
After saying this, Physical Strength pointed to the malachite necklace. Yijie also looked over, and in his sight was a beautifully crafted malachite necklace. The platinum-colored chain had a baby-palm-sized malachite hanging from it, with patterns like peacock feathers, blue, green, yellow, and black complementing each other, unspeakably exquisite.
But such an item hung on the neck of a woman military personnel dressed in tattered clothes, does it look proper? Yijie couldn’t help but doubt.
Ryan and several of his disciples also expressed skepticism. Even the Fire Head Workers slowed down their movements, suspiciously looking at Physical Strength.
Unfortunately, the decision Physical Strength wanted to make was not something ordinary people could sway. With a quick movement of her lips, she stated her request crisply, "The chain will be made of Silver Chain, and for the centerpiece, use this." Physical Strength said, then took something out of her military bag.
Glowing blue, shining bright. Wasn’t this Dayu’s Divine Talisman? Only Little Eight knew the origin of this Divine Talisman; as for the others, they all looked strangely at what looked like a talisman sewn out of blue fabric.
"What is this?" Not wanting Ryan to feel awkward, Yijie reached out and took the blue fabric.
"Amulet," Physical Strength blatantly lied since she couldn’t possibly explain that this talisman was given to her by the great God Yu from hundreds of years ago. The best excuse was to call it an amulet.
"In this day and age, still playing with these superstitious trinkets, and you’re a military person," Yijie thought thoughtlessly and with a "pfft", pinched it with his fingers and flung Dayu’s Divine Talisman away.
He flung it awkwardly, and as it flew toward the Fire Head Worker, who was shoveling coal, the worker, distracted by their conversation, failed to notice the Dayu Talisman flying towards him. He continued to shovel the coal as usual, accurately scooping both the Divine Talisman and coal into the blazing furnace.
Physical Strength’s face turned red, then white, and finally green, "Get it out immediately, this instant, if it’s even the slightest bit damaged, I guarantee the sun will not shine on your shiny bald head tomorrow!!"
By the time Yijie frantically dug out the coal ash, he was internally praying for mercy, thankful that the bluish talisman was still intact, without even a tiny black hole.
The coal ash was still warm, but the "amulet" Yijie held felt ice cold.
"Carrying this thing during the dog days of summer must be nice," Yijie returned the "amulet" to Physical Strength, who carefully wiped and breathed on it, treasuring it immensely.
Scoffing at the reverence for a mere amulet, wondering who gave it, as if it was something special, Yijie did not realize that his tone carried a hint of sourness.
Seeing that the high-temperature furnace that could melt iron hadn’t damaged the talisman, Ryan also felt that the talisman was special. He took the talisman and examined it carefully, surprised: "This seems to be a blessed talisman."
A blessed talisman was more than just an ordinary one. Ryan had the privilege of creating items like talismanic clothing for the Royal Family to ward off evil, but he couldn’t recognize which person’s handcrafted this talisman.
"Here’s what we’ll do. I’ll take this talisman, and you come to pick it up in ten days. I’ve never forged such a necklace before, and I don’t know what the outcome will be," Ryan spoke honestly, expressing his concerns. He was a forthright craftsman and did not want to deceive his customers.
"No worries," Physical Strength had the impulse to make a necklace out of the talisman, but she didn’t know what effect the talisman would have. Let’s wait and see in ten days. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Ten days later, Yijie’s Hand Cannon modifications and the gunstock had roughly taken shape. At this time, it was also getting late, so the two decided to log off first, as both needed to maintain high levels of Physical Strength and energy to deal with their daytime work commitments.
"I’ll be online around ten o’clock every night," Yijie shouted out before leaving. Physical Strength did not turn back, just waved her hand, gesturing a "got it" sign.
